Custom Couture - Design Your Own Dress

Every girl dreams of being a fashion designer. Now she can actually design her own clothes.

It all begins with the Designer’s Portfolio, which includes everything a young designer needs to begin the process, including fabric swatches, pencils, sketchpad, and a questionnaire for her and her parents to capture the details. She will choose from swatches of organza, taffeta, charmeuse, chiffon, and other fabrics to decide on her ideal material. Next she will create her design, then collaborate with a professional New York City fashion designer, who will translate her vision into a one-of-a-kind garment. They will consult on color, fabric, and fit to ensure a perfect rendering of your child’s dream design. For the finishing touch, a custom label, named and designed by the young designer, will be hand-sewn into her one-of-a-kind garment.
